We have enjoyed a weeklong visit with our other nephew Bradley Cude. He flew in from Wisconsin on Saturday. He is 15 years old and is close friends with Tim and Tom. The highlight of our week was going to Disneyland. The younger kids stayed home with my mom while Jason and I took the three teenagers to see Mickey. Bradley leaves on Easter Sunday.

On Sunday, we celebrated Providence's birthday. She wanted a princess theme. The kids made tiaras, did a castle maze and cut out princess paper dolls. Even the boys had a good time. She received wonderful gifts from friends and family: dress-up clothes, kitchen set, ballet outfit, and dolls. Unfortunately, we were missing one of our family members at the party. Jason's grandma, Phylis Fowler had a stroke a few nights before the party. She is now home and recouping with home health PT and using a caregiver from Home Instead. Please keep her in your prayers.
